Time and Timing

The last couple of days, I've been avoiding the impulse to engage in stress-filled rushing to accomplish the number of small and seemingly not-so-small things on my list before we open on Saturday. Marvelously enough, I've been getting things done and have been enjoying the feeling of accomplishment that follows. I've been surprising myself with what I've been able to do. One seemingly large and intimidating thing that I have yet to accomplish is to figure out the flow of a microphone gag I'm performing in the circus show this summer and more importantly, how that flow will end. Despite being told not to worry, I still do.

Life has also dealt me a series of tidbits of observation and knowledge in the last couple of weeks that has impressed on me the idea that everything is about timing. Some things will line up eventually, some things won't. Some things will happen when you want them, some will be sooner or later, and some won't happen at all. Sometimes it sucks and some times you see the fortune that comes in not getting what you want when you want it.
